Whitney Houston
Nobody likes to be picked on. Nobody.
Whitney Houston
Nobody makes me do anything I don't want to do. It's my decision. So the biggest devil is me. I'm either my best friend or my worst enemy.
Whitney Houston
I'm an old-fashioned girl. And I love gospel. I like things that lift me up, inspire me.
Whitney Houston
My mother taught me that when you stand in the truth and someone tells a lie about you, don't fight it.
Whitney Houston
Sometimes you do have a good time. But when it gets to the point where you're sitting in your home and you're just trying to cover what you don't want people to know. It's painful. And then you want more just so that you don't let anybody see you cry. Or anybody to see we're not happy.
Whitney Houston
What's in your soul is in your soul.

I wanted to be a teacher. I love children, so I wanted to deal with children. Then I wanted to be a veterinarian. But by the age of ten or eleven, when I opened my mouth and said, 'Oh, God, what's this?' I kind of knew teaching and being a veterinarian were gonna have to wait.
Whitney Houston

Whitney Houston
I almost wish I could be more exciting, that I could match what is happening out there to me.
Whitney Houston
I love to sing, but it's just not fun anymore.
Whitney Houston
Sometimes you'll laugh. Sometimes you'll cry. Life never tells us, the when's or why's. When you've got friends, to wish you well. You'll find your point when. You will exhale.
Whitney Houston
Being around people like Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick and Roberta Flack, all these greats, I was taught to listen and observe.
Whitney Houston
I would stay in my room for days, for days at times, just trying to get it together, to know what my next phase was going to be.
Whitney Houston
I have priorities. Maintaining my daughter is my first.
Whitney Houston
I've always been a thin girl. I'm not going to be fat, ever. Let's get that straight. Whitney is not going to be fat, ever. Okay?
Whitney Houston
I finally faced the fact that it isn't a crime not having friends. Being alone means you have fewer problems.
